11. On one hand, it is good to see so many Republicans switching parties.

On the other hand - for some - THEY ARE NOT DEMOCRATS. They are just temporarily NOT Republicans. They still carry old Republican beliefs but are upset with Trump or their party's inability to rein him in. They haven't suddenly embraced Democratic ideals. Once they get a sane conservative back in power, they will dump us like a hot rock. I don't want my party watered down with more DINOS. Like when Richard Painter was running as a Democrat. I can enjoy watching him take down Trump and his ilk but we have better, true Democrats to represent us, so I was happy that he did not win. That said, I hope they do go out and vote for us but hope that in doing so, they don't try to change our party (from within).
